The two teams are separated by just eight miles and given that the Wombles have only been a club since 2002 - let's not get into the whole Wimbledon/MK Dons debate again - and a Football League club since 2011, it's hardly a surprise to find that the pair have only ever met once before.

That was in a Johnstone's Paint Trophy clash in 2013, held at Griffin Park, so come August, the Bees will be travelling to Kingsmeadow for a competitive fixture for the first time.

It was a first round Southern section clash that Brentford won 5-3.

The Bees led 1-0 at the break thanks to Farid El Alagui's goal three minutes before half-time. Two goals - from Luke Norris and another from El Alagui within ten minutes of the restart put the hosts in complete control.

Jim Fenlon pulled a goal back for the Dons, but Ben Nugent and Javi Venta all but sealed it for Brentford before late strikes from George Francomb and Peter Sweeney ensured the visitors ended with some pride.

The two teams have played numerous friendlies against one another though, with the Bees particularly supportive of the phoenix club during their early days, while a fair few players have turned out for both clubs.
